Everything was as advertised and described. ##### Julianna G. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Liza C. 26 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This place was perfect for us. We had to cancel a camping trip, and decided to try and find a cottage on very short notice. This property was the exact cottage feel we were hoping for, in a quiet, beautiful setting, and right on the lake.The house itself was clean and comfortable, with everything we needed. The kitchen is well-stocked, and we cooked great meals both inside and outside. The yard was beautiful, with trees, lake view, and lots of seating options. For extra supplies, it was just a 10 minute drive to a supermarket, LCBO, and places to buy firewood. Thanks, and we would definitely be happy to stay here again. ##### Liza C. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maseh D. 21 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Richard was very responsive and provided clear instructions. The property was clean and hassle-free. All amenities are present and the view is more beautiful in-person. We asked to check in 30 mins early the morning of and he kindly accommodated. There was some unplanned hydro work that cut power for 3 hours, which we were informed of when the owner found out as well. Despite this, an overall excellent experience, thank you! ##### Maseh D. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Carter B. 31 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Place Just Very Hot The house was very clean and neat. It came with plenty of towels and amenities. Beds were comfy and was plenty of space to perform games and activities. Only major complaint was the heat. It wasn’t mentioned in the description of the place, but the heat inside the cottage was almost suffocating. It is highly recommended to bring your own fans if you plan on staying in the summer. Another minor thing we noticed was the depth of the water, we were looking forward to jumping off the dock however, we couldn’t since it was too shallow (probably 3ft at the end of the dock). Overall a great house beautiful water perfect for swimming and well kept canoe and kayaks. ##### Carter B. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025
